Monitor your pH
Calibrachoa are very sensitive to pH, that’s why it is so important to know and monitor the pH of your water. This information allows growers to make good decisions about other additives such as fertilizer and acid injections. We recommend trying to maintain a pH under 6.0. For many varieties an ideal soil pH will be between 5.2 to 5.8.

Dropping Temperatures
Dropping temperatures throughout the growing process can help the plants thrive. We recommend keeping temperatures between 72- and 74-degrees in Weeks 1 and 2 in propagation. Then, dropping temps to between 68- to 72-degrees in Week 3. In Weeks 4 through 12, further reduce the temperature to between 65- and 68-dgrees.
